Description

Located just south of Bloomington NEAR LAKE MONROE, this is a fantastic blend of rural living and convenience! What a unique offering here with 23 +/- acres on the corner of Highway 37 South and Smithville Rd. If you are looking for a property with room to do the things you love...If you need boat or RV storage or workshop space...If you want to have a mini farm...This property could be ALL of those things! The main home on this property is an all-brick 4-bedroom, 2-bath ranch with an attached 2 car garage. The 40x64 pole barn was designed for the owner's construction business and racing hobby. Built with four truck size overhead doors, this is barn is large enough for an RV or a Semi Tractor. The property also includes a large shed on the back pasture and a very cute traditional farm barn near the house. The fully fenced pasture is perfect for hobby farming or livestock. Inside, you'll find a spacious layout with fireplaces in both the family room and primary bedroom, an unfinished basement, covered back deck, and all appliances included. Laundry hookups are available on both the main level and in the basement. The home has been vacant for several years and needs some TLC, but lots of potential here! Though we have not explored specific zoning options, the high exposure of Highway 37 makes this a great candidate for a potential business opportunity. Total of 23.08 acres included across four parcels: House: 53-11-04-300-012.000-006 Pt NW SW 4-7-1W (1 Acre); Barns: 53-11-04-300-004.000-006 Pt NW SW 4-7-1W (8.67 Acres); Highway frontage: 53-11-05-400-020.000-006 Pt SE SE 5-7-1W (0.91 Acre); Additional Acreage: 53-11-04-300-007.000-006 Pt SW SW 4-7-1W (12.50 Acres) This is an estate property being sold by court order.
